I've been informed I was banned for making a cobblestone generator. However, I did not make a cobblestone generator, so I am quite confused as to the meaning of all of this, or what was taken to be a cobblestone generator which certainly was not.
There are a few reasons why I would not make such a device. Firstly, I think they are moronic to be frank. Stone makes up 90% of the world; you can dig less than a block and bump into it. Cobblestone generators are also exceedingly slow to mine in comparison to just digging straight down into the earth, or around inside of the earth. I have always told anyone on any other server when they mentioned making a cobblestone generator that it was a silly idea for the aforementioned reasons.
My second reason I would logically not do such a thing is that I literally, with the help of my compatriots although it was mostly myself, dug out an entire mountain. Not just any mountain, but something quite far into the sky, and I do believe breaking the old height limit by quite a number of blocks. As such, I mined loads, upon loads, upon loads, upon loads, upon loads of cobblestone; partially my idiocy for not knowing that by starting that high up, all you would get would be stone as that the only thing that generates on those first layers you dig through. And once I managed to get to lower layers, I of course still had masses of cobblestone mined from it, although I did manage to get to things worth mining. I had chests upon chests worth of cobblestone from that whole venture. It was more than I could do anything with on one hand, and on the other it needlessly and annoying filled up my inventory. As such, I have thrown more stacks of cobble (along with dirt and gravel) into lava and just outside out of my way to despawn than I could possibly remember.
My third logical example as to why I would not do this is whenever I did mine stone, I mined it to make rads pure and simple. That is why I chose the treachery plains of the SW, with all its bandits and PVP, instead of the EF; stone pays you money. Cobblestone does not pay money.
Fourth, and related to the third reason, I also don't particularly like cobble. As stated previous, I consider it mostly a nuisance once it gets to a certain point, and due to its plentifulness in the world, it always gets to that certain point. It fills up chests to the brim when those chests could be filled will things more valuable, which leads me to throw cobble away rather without care for losing it. All stone was to me was the rads gained from mining it mostly, and I did not nor do I care for the cobblestone gained as a result of it, which I -as stated previous- much of the time just threw away as I already had too much chest space taken up by cobble already. Likewise, my town really has no need for cobblestone, and the only reason I mined was for the rads the server gives for mining stone and the actual valuable materials for the town building and those things that could be used to work on construction. My town is Byzantine, or at least what we're working on for the foreseeable future is. We use sandstone and brick, and I pressed for that to be the building material. Any stone related materials we need are very, very minor in relation, and the amount needed as a result is already met due to everybody and their mother gaining cobble from doing anything at all in Minecraft (again, it's most of the world).
I'm not sure exactly what has been confused with nefarious goings-on by me, but whatever it is I can earnestly tell you must be a mistake. I have never X-Rayed, and I think doing so is idiotic given that you would be found out and banned from playing on the server you were using such a cheat to further your success in. I haven't PVP'd illegally. I haven't insulted any fellow members. I haven't sworn. And I certainly did not work to make a cobblestone generator. I haven't done anything ban-able in my time on the server because I have been respectful in general to my fellows, and respectful and obeying of the rules, because I believe doing anything other than that would be silly since I don't want to be banned, and I think it's silly to do anything to get yourself banned. It's not in my nature, and I do sincerely hope you understand and have faith in me.
I would like to end by saying if certain grammar is off, or if I wrote the wrong word, or if I did something like write "Does" instead of "Doesn't", or anything of that nature, I apologize. I'm just rather flustered over all of this as I saw only a short time before writing this that I was banned.
